Data Science with Julia
Autor Paul D. McNicholas, Peter Taiten Limba Engleză Hardback – 19 dec 2018
Julia, an open-source programming language, was created to be as easy to use as languages such as R and Python while also as fast as C and Fortran. An accessible, intuitive, and highly efficient base language with speed that exceeds R and Python, makes Julia a formidable language for data science. Using well known data science methods that will motivate the reader, Data Science with Julia will get readers up to speed on key features of the Julia language and illustrate its facilities for data science and machine learning work.
Features:
- Covers the core components of Julia as well as packages relevant to the input, manipulation and representation of data.
- Discusses several important topics in data science including supervised and unsupervised learning.
- Reviews data visualization using the Gadfly package, which was designed to emulate the very popular ggplot2 package in R. Readers will learn how to make many common plots and how to visualize model results.
- Presents how to optimize Julia code for performance.
- Will be an ideal source for people who already know R and want to learn how to use Julia (though no previous knowledge of R or any other programming language is required).
"This book is a great way to both start learning data science through the promising Julia language and to become an efficient data scientist."

Recenzii
"The book is ideal for people who want to learn Julia through machine-learning examples and is especially relevant for R users – Chapter 7 is devoted to interacting with R from within Julia. The book contains a good balance of equations, code, algorithms written from scratch, and use of built-in machine-learning algorithms. Readers can directly use the code, which is available on GitHub, or dive deeper into how the methods work. A nice feature is the inclusion of probabilistic principal components analysis (PPCA) and mixtures of PPCA for unsupervised learning."
~The Royal Statistical Society
". . . the book is an excellent piece of work that makes a start with Julia very easy and that covers all essential aspects of the language. After making the first steps into the realm of Julia with the help of this book, the reader should be able afterwards to find the own path and to specialize into the more individual aspects of the language that no introductory textbook can cover. The same is true for the data science part. After reading the book, the reader will be able to perform the most common analyses alone and learn other, more specific methods from different sources afterwards."

Descriere
There is a dearth of resources for data scientists, statisticians, etc., wishing to learn about Julia. Using well known data science methods, this book will both motivate the reader and assuage any unease. The book will get readers up to speed on key features of the Julia language and illustrate some of its advantages for data science work.
